About Palo Alto Networks

As a next-generation security company, Palo Alto Networks are leading a new era in cybersecurity by safely enabling all applications and preventing advanced threats from achieving their objectives for thousands of organizations around the world. Palo Alto Networks are the fastest growing security company in the market because of their deep expertise, commitment to innovation, and game-changing security platform focused on bringing an end to the era of breaches by uniquely integrating their Next-Generation Firewall, Advanced Endpoint Protection, and Threat Intelligence Cloud.

Because these capabilities are natively built into the platform and designed to deliver highly automated preventative measures against cyber threats, we ensure superior security to legacy point technologies such as stateful inspection firewalls, UTMs, or endpoint security products. With this platform, organizations can confidently pursue a digital-first strategy as they implement key technology initiatives within the cloud and increasingly mobile networks, while maintaining complete visibility and control, to protect their most valued data assets and critical control systems.

The Palo Alto Networks Next-Generation Security Platform has four key characteristics that enable the prevention of successful cyberattacks:

Natively integrated technologies that leverage a single-pass architecture to exert positive control based on applications, users and content to reduce organizational attack surface, support open communication, orchestration, and visibility, and enable consistent security posture, providing the same protection on the endpoint, in the data center, on the network, in public and private clouds, and across SaaS environments.

Automation of protection by creating and reprogramming security postures in real-time across the network, endpoint and cloud environments to counter new threats, allowing teams to scale with technology, not people.

Extensibility and flexibility that allow for consistent protection as users move off physical networks – and as organizations expand – and adopt new technologies and architectures.

Threat intelligence sharing that enhances prevention and minimizes the spread of attacks by taking advantage of the network effects of automated sharing of protections across a global community.

Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls are architected to safely enable applications and prevent modern threats. Our approach identifies all network traffic based on applications, users, content and devices, and lets you express your business policies in the form of easy-to-understand security rules.

Flexible deployment options and native integration with our next-generation platform extend the policy enforcement and cyberthreat prevention to everywhere your users and data are located: in your network, on your endpoints and in the cloud.

How our Technology Works:

Single-Pass ArchitectureEnables full, contextual classification of traffic, followed by a rich set of enforcement and threat prevention options

App-IDClassifies all of your applications, across all ports, all the time, regardless of port, encryption (SSL or SSH) or technique used to evade detection.

User-IDIntegrates with a wide range of user identity repositories so that your policies follow your users and groups regardless of their location.

With Palo Alto Networks you get a REALLY Superior Security Platform that safely enables all your applications and prevents known and unknown cyber threats for all users on any device across any network.

Secure the Network

Palo Alto Networks gives you complete visibility into and precise control over your network traffic, and protects you from unknown threats.
